Looks like the Cafe is permanently closed, and the space is occupied by new owners. I was just driving by on Cannington Rd on Monday (Feb 11, 2019) and the sign was gone, and the colours inside were different. A honk behind me forced me onward up the hill before I could get a very good look. GOOGLE/FACEBOOK confirms that the CAFE (and excellent Gelato Bar) are closed, but the Pizzeria is still open.

That being said, If I was craving pizza in Tobago, La Cantina is a far better choice then Ciao. For me and my kids the Gelato Bar was a favourite. Alas.

Tobago tourism is hard to run a business on these days.

The good news is that Shore Things is thriving. And Open 6 days a week. (Saturday for Breafast of fresh fruit and pancakes, and hot cocoa in a teapot!

Hi Kurt. Merco( May not be spelled correctly) gave up the shop last spring. Getting supplies during the time there was such a problem with the ferry service must have been the final straw. Although the position of the pizzeria was not the best I have to say the pizza were ! Early in the day you could also buy fresh bread straight from the wood burning oven. Everything made from ‘OOO’ flour imported from Italy ( via Trinidad ) . He still has a place in Trinidad. I have to say a draft Stag and a real pizza was our reward for standing in line at the bank on our regular , but necessary , trips to town from Castara. Cantina was our choice in Crown Point though! I did build a real wood burning pizza oven up at our place in Castara which produces pizza almost as good! Photographic evidence can be provided but alas you cannot smell the pizza!
